L'Âne Rouge - Nice

Excellent reception of the chef and his team, refined meals, impeccable cooking, fresh food. everything in excellence .....

The dishes are colorful, neat, tasty with the scents of the south. the fish is worked to reveal its freshness and flavour. Honestly a real moment of pleasure! A special heartburn for the risotto.

Perfect welcome, warm service, pretty deco and neat cooking, but.....In the plate, with the map, the portion of fish and seafood is ridiculous: in a dish called calamar paella way, we had about fifteen grams of calamars and rice, rice... the same thing for fish dishes that we had to look for at the magnifying glass behind the polenta and why cut the air conditioning

So then, you want to break with the typical nice dish? That's pizza! excellent reception, no need for reservations. What? we have taken two menus discovered and unfortunately no child menu ( it's very bad ) . the dishes arrive calmly and with the smile. difficult to modify the dessert of the menus although they are all at the same price . cooking is really successful of taste, freshness but nothing exceptional. c is good, fresh and c is what we ask at its rates. no extension card .... c is reassuring.

Enjoyable amuse-bouche; a little cheese brioche, and unusual sweet/sour cream cheese.Followed by a refreshing and surprising sweet palette cleanser, like a strawberry gazpacho, with subtle spice flavours. Both starters, stuffed sardines on couscous and lobster on quinoa were fresh and light.Both of us had red snapper on a zesty risotto, for our main course, again light and fresh tastes.For us the least successful part of the meal was dessert; a plate centred around apricots cooked in different ways. The surrounding sauce was a bit heavy on almond essence, the sorbet had melted a bit too much as had the apricot mouse; perhaps too many different flavours going on at once?Despite the dessert I would still go back again as there was a delicacy and refreshing approach to the cooking of the fish that let the integrity of the fresh ingredients stand out.
